[michime]

Oni walked along his mountain under the full moon knowing he was alone.  The demon lived at the peak of the mountain away from the futile farmlands lower on the mountain.  He liked the quiet and the isolation of the mountain top.  His blue skin glistened with a thin layer sweat even though he wore not clothing at all.  He soaked up the moonlight for a few moments then down at the sleeping village below.  None of the humans dared to come up the mountain for fear of the great beast.  He sometimes wondered if there was a soul brave up to climb his mountain but no one ever did.  No one willingly entered his territory.
